Fixing Microphone Permissions for Safari on Desktop
If you didn't receive a pop-up or see the Microphone permission required message, you will need to reset Safari's permissions for TalkType.
In the top navigation bar, next to the Apple logo, click on Safari and then choose Settings.
Then, choose Websites in the top bar, and then select Microphone. You will then see a list of currently opened websites within Safari and a drop-down menu next to the TalkType URL that says "Deny". Click on this drop-down menu and change this from "Deny" to "Allow".
Once you have changed this to Allow, you can close this Settings window, refresh Safari and then just press the purple microphone button and start Dictating.
